Title
WaterAid - Preventing corruption,
encouraging transparency and
accountability in the water and
sanitation sector: A case study
from Kerala, India
Abstract
Many see corruption as a huge obstacle in
undermining development efforts generally
and those in the water and sanitation sector
specifically. It is mostly agreed that the key
to its eradication is through efforts to
increase accountability and transparency.
This paper sets out how this was done in a
water and sanitation project, Jalanidhi, in
Kerala State. It indicates that success was
considerable and corruption reduced
through the direct involvement of
community members in the detail and
management of the project. This is despite
the fact that opposition was encountered
from some sources.
